Inside the hotel.

After Jiang Lun answered Robert's call, he turned his head and continued to sleep, and did not wake up until dawn.

Brushing his teeth and washing his face, taking a hot bath, and then having breakfast, Jiang Lun asked McNugget about today's itinerary.

"If it's not arranged, I'll take a trip to DDF!"

Li Qing didn't come back last night, so he lived there, and it was estimated that it would be time to get up at this time, and Jiang Lun had to continue to talk to them about the arrangement.

McNugget looked at his watch and said, "In just over forty minutes, Zoe will be there, and I will have to pick her up at the airport on behalf of the company, and then we will go to DDF together." ”

"What is she doing here?"

Jiang Lun's mind remembered the French female star who walked the red carpet together in Monte Carlo before, and he couldn't help but be surprised, he hadn't received any notice.

"Didn't the company give you the task of singing French songs? But you don't know French, so I asked Zoe to come over and teach you how to speak, and sing with you to cover up your jerky language, and help you write lyrics and so on. McNugget said lightly.

"Didn't you say looking for a teacher?"

Jiang Lun said, "Forget it, let's talk about it when we meet!"

A quarter past nine in the morning.

The flight from New York landed at Los Angeles International Airport.

Now Jiang Lun can't go out casually abroad, so he has to wait in the car.

Zoe and her agent came out of the airport, not even wearing sunglasses and masks, and they were quite open.

Of course, no one recognized them either, after all, Zoe was only second-tier in France, let alone in the United States.

"Hey, Zoe!"

"Jaron, so happy we finally met again!"

As soon as they got in the car, Jiang Lun and Zoe greeted each other.

Zoe was still a chatter, and as soon as she sat down, she frowned and poured bitter water on Jiang Lun, telling her how hard she had been on the way.

Santa Monica is just north of Los Angeles International Airport, and in less than half an hour, you can reach the DDF Music Factory.

Today's DDF is much quieter, there is no band rehearsal inside, but after entering it, I found that today is not just quiet, but quiet and terrible.

The reason is because someone is recording a song, and this person is not simple, he is the American electronic music queen Renka Portman, one of the few super pop divas.

It is not unusual for musicians like DDF to foresee such a superstar in such a place, even musicians from Santa Monica, but it is different like Jiang Lun, how to say that it is the first time he has seen this woman.

"Hey, Jaron!"

Abel saw Jiang Lun and his party coming in, and came up first to say hello.

When he saw his friend's Zoe, he couldn't help but ask, "Who is this......?" Your friend?"

"Zoe!" Jiang Lun introduced him, "A female singer in France, I asked her to help this time!"

"Oh?"

Abel and Zoe came to a closet salute at the moment, "Welcome to Santa Monica, Los Angeles!"

"Thank you! It's a pleasure to meet you!" Zoe was now less talkative, less noisy than she had been in the car.

"Renka is recording a song inside, I'll introduce you to say hello to her later!" Abel said.

"Then let's find us a room first!"

Jiang Lun made a headache, "I'll talk to Zoe about French songs!"

"Hahaha, okay!"

Abel laughed, "This language is not easy to learn!"

found a room, Jiang Lun arranged for McNugget to go to the Rhine to find Robert to sign a contract for the overseas distribution rights of the film, as for the release of the new album, it will be discussed by the rainy day after the production is completed, it is not a good thing to sign it all at once.

Only Zoe and her agent were left with Jiang Lun, Zoe's agent is also a beauty, but she has no figure at all, and she is a firewood girl, shriveled and shriveled.

As soon as I sat down, I took out my computer and mobile phone and got busy with myself.

Jiang Lun took out his mobile phone and let go of the prepared audio, which was a melody he played and sang, and the lyrics were completely "doodoo" hum.

Although this song has the original French lyrics, since Jiang Lun said that he can't, he can't take it out casually.

Originally, Jiang Lun also thought of finding a French teacher to teach him, and after learning for a while, he took out the lyrics translated from Chinese and French to the teacher and asked him to help correct them.

But now it seems that this trick has not worked.

Jiang Lun directly took out the Chinese lyrics and handed them to Zoe, "This is the lyrics I came up with, can you help translate it?"

"It's so simple?" Zoe glanced at it, her Chinese level was good, but when she saw such simple Chinese lyrics, she was a little suspicious, was this lyrics written by Jiang Lun, who wrote "Blue and White Porcelain"?

The music is let go, piano accompaniment, beautiful melodies.

Listening to the first paragraph, Zoe was stunned, "Such a nice melody?"

Jiang Lun was satisfied for a while, this song is called "My Name is Elena", it is because of the beautiful melody that Jiang Lun chose this one when choosing a French song, the lyrics are very simple and popular, but this is a girl's song, so Jiang Lun originally changed the lyrics to "Her name is Elaine", but now it seems that it is not needed, or call back the original name and keep the original version to the end.

So I took up the Chinese lyrics and said, "Since I sing with you, let's change the lyrics!"

Jiang Lun took the pen and changed all the lyrics in his previous lyrics "Elaine, her name is Elaine, she is a girl, like other girls", back to the original "Elaine, my name is Elaine, I am a girl, like other girls." ”

While Zoe was translating, her agent also came over to help change it together, while Jiang Lun sat on the side, flipping through his mobile phone in his hand.

On the phone is a photo of the original French lyrics, and after they finish translating it later, they will check it on one side and let them change it if it is wrong.

Jiang Lun was full of pride in his plan, and sat with his head in his hands and hummed along to the music.

The lyrics are very simple, and several paragraphs are actually the same.

And the two translate together, and the speed is still very fast.

An hour later.

There was a knock on the door, and Abel pushed it in, "Hey, Jaron!Zoe!

No need to guess, his friend is Renka Portman.

The appearance of this legendary queen of electronic music broke the records on the major music charts in the United States, telling everyone that it is not only male singers or black female singers who can achieve impressive results, but also white female singers.

And she once had a song that dominated the two major international electronic music charts for 20 weeks.

There are many types of electronic music, the most common are Disco, Hip-pop and EDM, but Renka is not only comfortable in these three genres, but also very good at the others, especially Trance, Techno and NewAge.

In addition, she has dabbled and experimented with other kinds of electronic music, such as acid jazz, house, ambient electronics, synthesizer pop electronics, etc.

It can be said that Renka Portman is a very well-rounded electronic music musician, and his dancing is very good, he won the individual championship of the national hip-hop junior group when he was a child, and he also released a teaching album of pure dance music.

“Jaron！”

When Renka saw Jiang Lun, she walked up to him and hugged him with an excited face.

Speaking of which, the age of this electronic music queen is twenty years older than Jiang Lun, and her body and skeleton are very large, this hug Jiang Lun was almost overwhelmed by the two soccer balls on her chest.

Renka didn't stay long, she still had a TV show today, and after a few words, she got up to say goodbye.

After she left, Abel asked Jiang Lun, "I listened to your seven samples all night last night, and they all have a rough plan, which one are you going to do first?"

Jiang Lun thought about it, and saw Zoe who was immersed in translating the lyrics, so he said, "Just the fourth song, that French song." ”

Abel also glanced at Zoe and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll do it first, when will you all have the lyrics come out?"

Jiang Lun said, "It's coming soon, I estimate that I will be able to record it tomorrow morning at the latest, of course, provided that your arrangement can be made." ”

Abel confidently said, "This song is relatively simple, and it is more than enough for me!"

Approaching Chinese, Zoe finally finished translating and handed the lyrics to Jiang Lun, "Look at it...... Forget it, you can't read it anyway. ”

"Then you read it to me. ”

Jiang Lun deliberately held the phone sideways, and only he could see the picture above.

Zoe didn't doubt him, and read it to Jiang Lun line by line.

"This doesn't rhyme, right?" Jiang Lun corrected the original version from time to time, not rhyming is a very good excuse, in addition, it is too difficult to read, there are no simple sentences and other excuses.

Zoe wasn't too troublesome, but when Jiang Lun objected, she made changes.

And in the process of changing, Jiang Lun transliterated the sentences that had been changed in multiple techniques such as Chinese pinyin and English for learning.

Sometimes a lyric is changed several times before it matches the original, so that the time suddenly arrives in the evening, and the final version is finally released.

Looking at the final version, Jiang Lun was overjoyed.

After dinner, the two of them went back to the hotel, Jiang Lun slept very late this night, and has been following the music to learn this song repeatedly, there are many difficulties in the pronunciation of French words, Jiang Lun has to correct the pronunciation over and over again, and under a pronunciation teaching software, each word is disassembled and crumpled to practice.

In the end, I practiced so much that I didn't even know how I fell asleep.

The next morning.

Jiang Lun was woken up by the phone, and when he saw that the time was half past ten, he looked at the call again, and it was Abel calling.

He told Jiang Lun that the accompaniment was ready, and he wanted to come and listen to it, and in addition, Zoe had already gone and was listening now.

Jiang Lun hurriedly got up and washed up, and asked Mai Le to drive him to the DDF Music Factory.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Abel yawning and sitting on the sofa with a tired face, probably waiting for Jiang Lun, and the production of this song made him not sleep all night last night.

Seeing Jiang Lun coming in, Abel suddenly got up from the sofa, "It's done, if you want to record it today, just tell Dewey, I'll do it later, I'll go to bed first, bye." ”

"Okay, then you go to sleep first. ”

Jiang Lun was also embarrassed to see him like this, and after Abel left, he entered the recording studio by himself.

Inside, Zoe was holding a headset and listening to a song, while Dewey was constantly debugging sound effects in front of the computer, and neither of them noticed that Jiang Lun came in.

It wasn't until Jiang Lun pulled a chair and sat aside that the two of them found him.

"How about it?" Jiang Lun took a headphone strap on, "Let me listen from the beginning." ”

Dewey replayed the accompaniment, "If you feel that there is something inadequate, you can change it." ”

Zoe said, "I don't have a big problem listening, have you learned the song?"

"Almost. Jiang Lun said, "If it's okay, we can go in and record it today." ”

"Well, I think so too. "Zoe was excited, she had been looking forward to recording the song, so she came early today.

Every year, so many Chinese singers come to the United States to record songs, in fact, not only the equipment here is good, but the arranger's ability is also very strong.

The arrangement made from Abel's hand is of very high quality.

Moreover, his personal artistic creativity is very high, and arrangement is a process of secondary creation on the basis of composition.

In a complete song, the arranger's credit accounts for one-third, and often the higher the arranger's ability, the stronger the creative ability.

But some people who rely on good talent and strong creative ability do not necessarily have good arranging, in general, arranging music requires both inspiration and good technique.

After listening to the accompaniment, Jiang Lun and Zoe began to go into the studio to record songs.

In a completely enclosed environment, the two of them put on headphones and only music was left.

The notes of the intro flow slowly.

Zoe opened her mouth and sang, "Elaine, my name is Elaine, and I'm a girl, like any other girl. ”

"Elaine!"

Jiang Lun pinched the paper full of lyrics in pinyin and English translation, and sang in a deep voice with a low octave, "I have my joys and sorrows, this is my life, just like yours, I want to find love, I just want to find love." ”

This was not a chorus song, but Jiang Lun and Zoe changed it like this, which made this song shine with a new light.

Of course, no one in this world has ever heard the original version of the song, so this choral version has become the only original version in this world.

"Elaine, my name is Elaine, I'm a girl, like any other girl!"

"Elaine, if there were dreams and poems every night, I would ask for nothing more, I want to find love, I just want to find love!"

After each of them finished singing two stanzas, they sang together:

"Even if,

If my photo,

Available in all newspapers every week!

But no one was waiting for me at night!

When I come home late,

No one makes my heart pound,

Because the spotlight is out!

……

even if

You see me singing and laughing on TV!

But no one was waiting for me at night!

When I come home late,

No one makes my heart pound,

Because the spotlight is out!"

Dewey outside got goosebumps when he listened.

Jiang Lun's deep voice is down-to-earth and warm.

And Zoe's crisp voice is as melodious as a white spirit bird.

As soon as the voices of the two combined-

Oh, my God!

This is the most beautiful song in the world.

Dewey clenched his fists and closed his eyes waiting for the song to end, but he also expected the song to never end.

In the last stanza, Zoe sings alone, "Elaine, all my sorrows will be forgotten one day......"

Then the two of them took turns singing and singing the last few lines together,

As if they were whispering:

"When I found love......

“……”

"When I find love!" (To be continued.) )
